The Adult Proof Secret Ringtone
This is the all new ringtone that is taking the UK by storm, well in fact taking the world by storm. It is a great ringtone that can be on your mobile phone but only teens can hear, yes this is all correct no adult can hear this amazing audible ringtone only the youngsters it has been tested and works.
This tone was invented as an alarm system to deter youngsters from hanging around in groups outside shops and many other places and what happens is an alarm that no adult can hear is going off constantly which means the teens go in shops and buy what they want then they get away from the area as soon as possible because the sound is to unbearable after a while.
So what do they do yes they put it on teens phones as a ringtone, this means that they could be in school or at home and at the time they are not supposed to receive calls or text messages, well now they can because the adult cannot hear their phone going.
So our question is “Should the adult proof secret ringtone be banned? Leave all comments below.

i, don’t think that the adult proof secret ringtone(mosquito ringtone) should be banned . as i, don’t find anything wrong in it . infact , it’s only advantage to the teenagers is that it’s like an alarm system.
I would be completely annoyed if I were sitting in a class and I heard a “secret ringtone” only because the normal ones are disruptive and annoying to other students- not just the professors and teachers. I think this is a ridiculous idea and people should stick to vibrate or silent mode period because you’re in class to learn and you shouldn’t be worried about who is calling you in the first place.
great idea baning this would be stupid
marissa, no offence but you seriously NEED to get a life.
I totally agree with Marissa cuz if my classmates’ phone kept going off during class, and we’re revising for an important exam, that would totally suck. So for those of u who don’t care for education and just go to school to know whoever is calling u, this is perfect.
Stupid, plain and simple. If you can’t be without your phone, you have issues.
Does it come in yellow?
You should be reading books,not text messages in class.Ban the ringtone!!!!
Anyoen care to tell me how they plan to enforce the banning of this particular ringtone?
Are we going to check the cell phone of every student in school everyday to make sure they don’t have it?
Are we going to stop allowing kids to bring thier phones to school in case of emergency?
No all of those are dumb ideas…
The answer is plain and simple, use the existing rules to punish students whose ringtones go off in school, regardless of which one it is.
Besides, it’s not like they are going to be making phone calls in class, and it is the teachers responsibility to ensure the kids are paying attention, if a kid isn’t then you take care of it.
I know they say adults cannot hear this but I’m 26 years old and I can hear it.
Banning things isn’t an answer for any situation, period. It undermines the foundations of a free and democratic society.
i wouldn’t worry. it’s not fool proof. i’m 31 and can still hear it.
The cut off for hearing the ringtone is 30, so you’re not that amazing brett. The majority of teachers are above the age of thirty, and anyone in the fourty range cannont hear the frequency. Overall, I’d say its effective, however, I’m seventeen and i have to be within two feet to hear it. Kind of freaky thing, very clever too.
only deaf people cant hear this ring tone……PARDON!… 🙂
hey, audey noting the fact that Marissa typed ‘professor’ instead of teacher indicates the fact that she is in college. When I go to college (which will be very soon) I don’t want to be paying tuition to hear other students cells go off during class. any ways it doesn’t always work… my friend had it go off during class for a text, and my geezer of a teacher still heard it. some adults can still hear it.
I think that this ring tone should be immediately banned. It is rather disturbing in class when i am focusing on the teacher’s lecture. After all, school should be promoted as a learning environment, not a place for students to text and call each other.
hey, it’s not a troublesome noise and it doesn’t disrupt class. It’s impossible to enforce any banning of it.. and if teachers can’t see kids txting, banning the rintone aint gonna solve that.. sooooo things are gonna stay the same and all who oppose, are going to have to deal.
First of all you cant “Ban” a ringtone. The only thing that they can do is just catch texting in the act. What are they going to do? Check everyones phone for this ring tone? meh. Use your brains people. Its going to be impossible to check over 3000 phones every day.
Personally I think it should be banned.. I am an adult and CAN hear it… I had to have my cousin take it off her phone because every time it goes off it feels like me ears are going to bleed. If it has this effect on me I am sure there have been physical issues with other people also…. and whats wrong with just putting the thing on VIBRATE PEOPLE.
First of all, there are certain ringtones that 60 and under can hear, 50 and under, 30 and under, and so on. (Your not special) Anyway this shouldn’t be banned because, how are you going to ban it, how many kids will care if you ban it, usually if it bothers someone you say, STOP and the teacher notices it, and how many kids are actually using this in class? Think about it, maybe they have it, but who says they use it?
It’s fairly rare for a classroom to be completely silent, unless there is a particular reason for it being so, such as a revision session.
Add the fact that due to most phone speakers being tiny, you have to be within a few feet of the speaker to actually hear it.
If you find a 17KHz beep THAT disruptive, you may want to see your GP, as you may have ADHD.
Also, many people’s hearing is vastly different. I can hear anything up to 45KHz, I’m 31. Yet my missus can’t hear me whistle if I do it high enough, and she’s 23.
So no, don’t ban it. No-one banned the crazy frog. And that thing annoyed a whole country…..
